Due to the non-redistributability of opentyrian-data, it's impossible to create a source package for it. For the moment I created an open-tyrian binary package that installs the data files to /usr/share/games/opentyrian/data. The zip can be found at the following URL: http://www.camanis.net/tyrian/tyrian21.zip However it's not possible as is. This zip file should be downloaded and unpacked during postinst to somewhere in /var (cache or lib). It is also possible to do this before launching the game somewhere in $HOME. The latter is probably better as it avoids to download as root. In the meantime, if you want to test, you can remove the dependency and launch the game in a directory where data/ contains game data (see src/file.c). For the actual download code, I don't know if it's possible to use game-data-packager, but it's always possible to roll our own solution, à la flashplugin-nonfree. In the meantime, I refreshed my packaging, fixed a few warnings and pushed my package to the following URL: git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-games/opentyrian.git As you can see your help is welcome :) You can add yourself to Uploaders and help fix the remaining lintian warnings, do the copyright review (should be OK), and/or of course find a solution for the data files :) If it's your first package I'll be happy to help you. Please let me know what you're interested in. -- Etienne Millon
